What do you guys think of writing notes on money?

Maybe you could write Eiriu Eolas, nothing else. Of the many who wind up handling the bill, a curious person might google it. This would be a form of viral marketing.

That is actually not a bad idea at all! Maybe we should all take out all our bills and write in in nice print on all of them?

Yes! money is the most exchanged object between people, let's spread the world!

It’s a good idea. It’s a simple matter of numbers; a small percentage of a huge number is a significant amount.

Also, there’s no sell. The person’s own sense of wonder is the initiating factor, sans any bias which may inhibit trying to find out what EE is.

Thanks Harold, I'm going to do it also.

Also it would be a pleasant surprise if you receive one of these bills. That is, assuming it is not your own handwriting. :)

Thanks a lot for this session, I just wanted to share that here in Peru, we are living the most cold winter in almost 40 years. Temperatures went down to 8,8 Celsius, when normally we are At 19 degrees on a normal winter day!!! I've never fell this cold in my home city, nor have my family.
I'm going to pass the EE breathing program to my sister, she is an Architect, but also she loves Yoga, so she teaches to some friends. I think that would be a nice way to pass the EE breathing program. I'm just becoming much more aware that we have to do some work, not just stay in the computer listening to someone else story. We need to star in our own reality.

The fund raiser would be nice, we could start by selling some buckwheat cookies, or something like that.

Curiously enough, this morning while checking e-mail I saw add for an article, '10 things you did not know were illegal' or something like this. What I found out from it that in some countries it is illegal (US included) to write anything on the money and it is punishable by law (not sure how it's enforced though)

It's my responsibility to inform of possibility that such laws could potentially be used against us.

Eiriu Eolas is quite traceable for an example...

 

[paralleloscope]

It's a great idea with the money graffiti, imo, instantly had thougths of where not to write, like if doodling on the watermark would make it worthless.

Falun gong use this way of communicating in China,

it appearantly says : 'Falun Gong, honest studies of the movement brings joy' or something of the like

edit:typo

at first I thought this is a great idea but on second thought I am quite sure this is illegal and could possibly bring the wrath of control system upon us FWIW
edit- just saw agni's post

It is same on this side of the globe, we never had such freaky and unusual summer in Malta before, yes there was a heatwave only few weeks ago but now its unusually cool for this time of the year. Cant say that I am complaining because the temperature is perfect for the time being, but we will see what will happen in the winter.
Also many people reported explosion in population of the ants which according to local folklore is forecasting unusually cold and long winter.

Illegal to jot a note on money, hmmm? So, we can that idea. Maybe little stickers to put wherever stickers can go is the next best thing?

I think this is the article in question.

6. Defacing U.S. Currency

U.S. currency isn't designed to be run through the clothes washer, written on or masticated by pets. Yet while accidental damage to currency normally isn't illegal, deliberate defacement is. Federal law prohibits any action that mutilates, cuts, defaces, perforates or glues together U.S. currency or otherwise renders bills unusable.

"It really becomes illegal if you deface it in any way," Dickens says. "When I say, 'deface,' that means you make it unusable. A merchant won't accept it; if it's been glued, it won't fit into a vending machine."

The law doesn't offer specific examples of usability, but common sense should apply.

Writing EE on the edge wouldn't be making it unusable. People do it all the time with that Where's George thingy.

 

[ScioAgapeOmnis]

Yeah you can use a thin permanent marker or a pen and write in little letters on the white outer edge, that's usually where they put the "where's george" thing from what I've seen..

On the other hand, maybe it's best to be safe than sorry. It's just such a good idea, it's a bummer if we can't do it at all :(

What about writing on on coins? There's no way you could deface a piece of metal with a permanent marker, you could put eiriu on one side and eolas on the other or something..

I think they key is word " currency "

From the same article:

"At least one spokesperson for the US Secret Service has pointed out in print that marking US bills, even if not defacement, is still illegal for other reasons[10] under 18 U.S.C. § 475; however, the general view is that using Where's George? rubber stamps on currency is not illegal per se.[11] One Secret Service spokesman in Seattle, Washington, told The Seattle Times in 2004: "Quite frankly, we wouldn't spend too much looking into this."[3]"


I don't know, but I personally would not take SS word for it...

sticks and hornets nests :)


p.s For some reason word "traceability" is stuck in my mind though...

 

[Richs]

Yep. I'm thinking that any excuse might be used to try to inhibit the EE program. Better I think not to pull the wolves down on our heads.
Just because they don't prosecute 'other people' does not mean they would not prosecute 'us'.
It would be nice to use their 'monetary system' against them though!
Darn!

Yes! Like a message in a bottle! But not the reason I do it, I do it as a creative way to express my support and disgust with with how things are and how they can be.

Now I'm trying to think of all the messages I have used.

Here's one....something like "looking for truth? Go to http://www.sott.net/signs/new_readers.htm" or something like that. My only concern is giving the PTB a reason to come after truth seekers, and writing 'Alien Blood' on the queens face, well there has to be a law against that.

I think that this could be examined a little,

Thats a loophole I can fit through.
